Hi,

We are running samba v3.6.3 on Ubuntu 12.04 server.  This is being used
with FreeRADIUS for wireless authentication with AD.  We just logged a
set of messages from winbindd that I don't understand:

Jan 23 10:35:28 as3 winbindd[25371]: [2013/01/23 10:35:28.056846,  0]

Jan 23 10:36:28 as3 winbindd[25371]:   credentials chain check failed

Authentications went through ok at 10:35:23 & again at 10:35:29.  We
haven't seen them before, & searching, I couldn't find much info.  What
do these messages mean?  What would have caused them?  Do we need to be
concerned?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What is happening here is that we are trying and failing to change our
machine account password.  Can you try Samba 3.6.12 and see if the
changes in the meantime have fixed this?

Can winbindd change the machine account password? This isn't being done by us manually.

Looking into this some more these links suggest a server-side error:

Looking at these links, are you suggesting that the DC database is being locked at this point in time, so when an auth request is being made, it fails?

Is there anything in the server event log to match this error?

I'm trying to get access to the DC event logs to look into this.

Thanks.

        -John
